Orange Is the New Black is an American comedy-drama series created by Jenji Kohan that first aired on Netflix on July 11, 2013. The series, produced by Lionsgate Television, is based on Orange Is the New Black by Piper Kerman, a memoir about her experiences in prison. Orange Is the New Black stars Taylor Schilling as Piper Chapman, a woman imprisoned for transporting drug money. The series also stars Laura Prepon as Alex Vause, a drug dealer and Piper's ex-girlfriend; Michael J. Harney as prison counselor Sam Healy; Michelle Hurst as Miss Claudette, a fellow inmate; Kate Mulgrew as the inmate cook "Red," and Jason Biggs as Piper's fiancé, Larry Bloom.

I watched all 13 episodes already...and the show launched less than 2
days ago. Yes it's THAT good! I was already interested in "Orange", as
I assume most of you were, because of the magic Jenji Kohan has given
us before...but this gem blew my expectations away! The way he lets the
characters develop without feeling forced will make you care about
these inmates and C.O.'s, and you won't even realize it until you try
to take a break from watching. Fans of his work in "Weeds" will
instantly feel at home with his direction style and camera work. The
humor he writes into this series will bring back fond memories of The
Botwins without feeling stale in the slightest. Much like the classic
prison drama "OZ", this incredible cast holds it down in a small prison
setting with ease. You will see names you know, but the ones you don't
will steal the scene. The way Kohan weaves in flashbacks of how the
inmates got there flow seamlessly in with the prison scenes. I was
glued to the screen through all 13 episodes and already I'm excited for
season 2.This is an instant hit, don't pass it up!

I heard so many good things about Orange is the New Black and the plot
made it seem like it would be interesting so i decided to give it a
try....I can now say i have officially wasted hours of my life watching
one of the most uneventful, overrated, unrealistic and just plain
boring shows on television Orange is the New Black is a completely unrealistic portrayal of a
woman's prison and the drama's that go on inside it. First of all, it
paints prison like somewhat of a sorority, there are no gangs/factions,
an extremely low level of illegal activity, very soft violence (if any)
and all of the inmates seem to be each other's best friends. I also
don't appreciate the fact that every inmate seems to be in prison for a
reason that is not of her own wrongdoing, like ALL of them are victims
of the justice system and have been hard-done by in their life.I literally watched episode after episode where NOTHING happened, there
is an episode at the beginning of the show, centered around the main
character Paige, imagining she is seeing a chicken....i was honestly
waiting for some kind of amazing cliffhanger or plot twist in this
episode....but the entire episode was about a chicken I have never been a fan of long, overly drawn out weak character
progressions, and that's exactly what tho show is. It has a bleak and
unrealistic storyline, characters who are so predictable and incredibly
dull that they are honestly hard to distinguish from each other, and
absolutely NO significant plot twists, cliff-hangers or interesting
story lines....If you want to watch a boring, over-hyped, lesbian sorority then watch
this show.....if you want something WAY better...then watch Orphan
Black

This has rave reviews and I'm really not sure why.

is it because of the occasional lesbian sex shown in a very coy way ?
or is it the odd flashing of a stray breast ?This is not Oz in a woman's prison. This is a watered down prison soap
for people that want to pat themselves on the back for watching
something where the word cwnt is mentioned occasionally and could been
seen as 'close to the edge'.The characterisation and acting is actually fairly good and the lead
character is likable. The problem is the saturated fat instead of substance. The fact that
you have to disengage brain too often to watch it. The proposition that
virtually all prison inmates are mentally challenged but only one is
mentally ill and where the racial stereotypes are laughable. The black population are a cross between whores and comic children's
toys where the black doll has floppy hair and does high fives
repeatedly. Their speech and patois is a racial parody for American
white middle class to look down on. There isn't one black person with a
brain or a motivation apart from deep fried chicken and an impulse to
dance at the drop of a hat.A good example being the storyline of the mobile phone hidden in a
wall. It's being used for entertaining an inmates boyfriend by her
sending him 'shocking' pictures of her punani. Just one minor
problem... how does she charge it ? so it's not Oz, it's not close to Oz more's the pity.

It brings back memories of Weeds. You know in its glory days. The first
few seasons before it went off the rails. That's what "Orange Is the
New Black" is like. Equal parts funny and sad. A mix of true pathos and
yet true honesty and beauty coming from the strangest places. Be warned
however there is plenty of lesbian sex and if the "F" word makes your
ears bleed it is probably a good idea to turn back now...This isn't OZ
but this also isn't Disney. This is a true winner from Netflix and
tells an interesting story not only from the main character's
perspective but from the other inmates as well. It would have been
boring to see things from just her point of view. Like Nancy Botwin on
Weeds, sometime Piper Chapman is portrayed in not so good a light
because she can be the villain in someone else's story.

Netflix bats it out of the ballpark again with another original,
intelligent comedy from the Jenji Kohan, the incredible writer who
brought us Weeds! I was hooked from the moment it opened. I wasn't
familiar with Taylor Schilling, but I am now a big fan. She's totally
charming as the lead and there's a lot of heat between her and fiancé,
Jason Biggs. The inmates are a crackup. It's inspiring to see a bunch
of women who aren't the same clichés we've seen over and over again. In
Orange is the New Black, Kohan pushes the boundaries in the same way
she did with Weeds. She somehow manages to make her female leads into
adorable victims of circumstance, even if they are criminals. I enjoyed
Weeds to the very end. Can't wait to see how this series unfolds!

Is this what compelling TV has come down to?

OK, let me start by saying that I am a late age male, who understands
and appreciates the need to include authenticity to make a drama synch
up to reality, however I am surprised to admit that "Orange is the New
Black" has driven home the point to me that adult fare, whether on
Netflix, HBO, AMC, Showtime or any other venue that is not associated
with one of the big commercial television networks, has taken a turn
that I find disturbing and another signal of the decline of western
civilization.What I am speaking of, you ask? Rampant profanity, excessive nudity and
a show that, in the early episodes that I was determined to watch,
seems to be a sanctioned version of soft porn.Yes, I know its a prison drama/comedy, and use of the F word is to be
accepted as part of common prison vernacular, but the depiction of
womens anatomy and sexual activities is just not necessary and serves
to distract from the story and pacing, and has caused me to question
what constitutes good television versus a show that has descended into
B grade storytelling?When I strip away the vulgar excesses, the story, with interesting
kernels of info dispensed about the justice system, as well as the back
flashes of each of the main characters offers up a show that has huge
potential, but with all of the other B grade TV elements, it has caused
me to step back and question my viewing habits.I have watched and enjoyed several other adult dramas not of the
commercial TV fare, and each has its share of profanity and adult
situations, however none has gone to the excesses that Orange offers
thru the first several episodes.As a viewer, I have chosen the little time I spend watching TV in shows
that offer a story worth telling, with realistic characterizations,
which include situations that do not always have to end happily, and I
am willing to watch and look past thematic elements that are required
to keep the story moving forward, but when I find that I am growing
embarrassed as a show moves thru its paces of telling a story, I
realize that I am compromising my expectations just to be watching
something.As a result, I struggle to endorse this show, as it poses to offer B
grade TV fare as compelling TV drama, and it does so in a way that
offends as much as it entertains.Watch if you must, but be forewarned that it appears to be walking a
fine line between drama and adult soft porn.

as exciting and adventurous the lives of degenerate liberals might
seem, their is still a substantial percentage of us that lead boring
lives, and yes thank you for letting us know about all the options we
have, we will most differently be using such shows for tips if we ever
deiced to live depraved and nefarious lives, but until then can we have

Brownjay gave a great review. So many new shows and movies are filled
with F words. Who are these people? I don't know anyone who talks like
that. I'm not a prude, but give me a break. I don't mind a few here and
there. But you can make a Great Show and stretch the boundaries of TV
without the vulgarity and nudity; Breaking Bad (Best show on TV), The
Killing, Mad Men... This show is extremely well-acted and is engrossing. But it really made
me step back and question my morals, as did House of Cards. I've only
myself to blame. I think Homeland is brilliant and I don't plan to stop
watching it. But it's got lots of the same elements also. And I
understand the realism factor needs to be there. But to me, the
constant barrage of F words and explicit language and nudity tend to be
distracting and unnecessary.

I'm not a racist or something but I would like to be honest in my
review, so please just take my review as a criticism of the series
nothing more.1- Too much Lesbian and non-straight stuff, sometimes I start thinking
that the director and author are freaks.2- Some scenes are really silly and makes me wanna vomit, mostly when
the black ladies sit in a group and trying to be funny (are we supposed
to laugh?)3- meaningless Symbolism in show, e.g. showing us David Star in a very
fast sketch while it means nothing!! What do you want to tell us? We
always see the same in Adam Sandlar, Ben Stiller,.... Movies..
Community College Series fails after it was a success because it's full
of Symbolism and it wasn't funny anymore.4- Not the best actress for the act, some can be better.5- Story is attracting, but the above points.

While I like the show, Piper shouldn't have gotten out of episode 11
without an ass whooping for dry snitching like that. This choice in the
script (among others) shows me that it's all savvy wordplay, twisty
sequences, but all Weeds....literally. A fancy dance around the harsh
realities.The fact that this prissy middle class white girl can come into a
prison, stir things up and continue unscathed, reveals the clear
middle-class Anglo critique of the writers regarding the less
fortunate.Great start, but if it keeps spilling that Anglo, blue-collar mess, I'm
done.Orange is definitely NOT the new Black; been waiting to get that one
off my chest too.

Orange is the New Black is being released on Netflix. I am providing my
review after watching the first four episodes.Because most of the show takes place inside a women's prison, this show
features an huge female cast, and it's a wonderful cast. Taylor
Schilling plays the lead, Piper Chapman, who has been sentenced to 15
years in prison for her part in drug smuggling ten years earlier.
Taylor also played the iconic role of Dagny Taggart in Atlas Shrugged.
Laura Prepon (That Seventies Show) plays Alex, Piper's ex-girlfriend.
Kate Mullgrew plays Red, a Russian émigré who runs the prison kitchen.
Natasha Lyonne plays Nicky a savvy girl who gets some of the best
lines. Yael Stone, who plays Lorna, is a striking presence on screen.
There are so many strong actresses in this production that I can't list
them all.Jason Biggs plays Piper's fiancé who must wait for her release to
restart their life together.Orange is the New Black is a drama with strong comedic undertones. The
New York prison where the women are incarcerated has an atmosphere that
might best be described as sterile, scary and corrupt. As the women
deal with the inhumanities of prison life, some seek small daily
pleasures, a few hold onto their hopes for a better life after prison,
and some are hopeless victims of the institution. Most of the latter
were victims in the outside world as well. As the women are introduced to us, there are flashbacks detailing their
histories and the circumstances that sent them to prison. Their stories
are humanizing. The prison employees also live within the prison
culture where rules are paramount. They too are imprisoned during their
work hours and must learn to cope with an insensitive environment that
is also political. Piper has to learn the rules and the other harsh realities from the
first moment she enters Litchfield Prison. Then she has to learn how to
cope, making mistakes along the way. Before she was confined, she lived
a life at the top of Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs; in prison, the most
basic needs cannot be taken for granted. Even the hugs are rationed
during visits with family and friends.As you watch, I think you will find that your heart hurts for these
women. There are so many themes available to the writers, but central
is the fleeting nature of hope. Can love flourish in prison? I think we will find out.I rate this show 9/10.

Netflix has been in the spotlight recently with their releases of both
House of Cards and Arrested Development in full seasons. After
finishing both I couldn't wait to see what else they had lined up and
once I heard that Jenji Kohan was on board I was sold. Being a fan of
Weeds I expected nothing less than well written strong female roles and
tons of F-bombs being dropped to come from Kohan's next project. Orange
is the new Black is about Piper Chapman and her untimely sentence to an
all female penitentiary. She must deal with adapting to her new prison
life while also having to maintain a relationship outside with her
recent fiancé. I had just finished the first season and was taken back
and how well so many of the characters were developed in just 13 hour
long episodes. In the beginning it does feel like the show doesn't
quite know it's own tone, but just around 4 episodes in it becomes a
fun drama with plenty of unique characters. A definite recommendation
to anyone who is looking for a summer series to watch!

I have no clue who all liked this series. Its slow, boring, badly
written, poor performances by mostly all characters. There are many
good TV shows out there, this is definitely 1/10 rating I could not
watch past 7 episodes of season 1 That too, I was forcing myself. It
does not flow well and it tests your patience. I feel all those who
have given it a thumbs up are not exposed to better cinema Its time
people come up with honest ratings and reviews. Gosh, I hope the
producers realize their mistake and don't make season 2 the choice of
characters is bad, the plot is boring unlike other series where u cant
wait to watch the next episode, this one bores the living guts out of
you in an episode. Please please stop this torture

Outside of "Breaking Bad", "Game of Thrones", and "Walking Dead", this
is the best show right now. What great character development. Jenji
Kohan got it right this time. Kohan's other project, "Weeds", started
out a really good show for the first two seasons, then just started to
feel forced and ridiculous- you also kept losing empathy for the
protagonist. The protagonist on this show has much more promise, and
all of the characters are mysterious but round in their development.
The flashbacks provide a much broader understanding of their history
and what drives them, similar to "Lost", which mostly proved effective. There is a lot of humor provided in Kohan's new series, but the humor
is more based in reality, as opposed to the unbelievable goofiness that
eventually ensued on "Weeds". I applaud Schilling and Mulgrew for their
amazing work on this show, and Jason Biggs provides the adequate amount
of comic relief just when it's needed most. The only criticism of the
show would be Laura Prepon. Like in everything she does, she falls
completely flat and doesn't add any real tension to the show, which is
the only point of her character- that was a complete miscast. Aside
from that, this is a close to perfect dramedy.Netflix is really starting to step it up and give the big paid cable
networks a run for the their money. Good- HBO and Showtime need to get
with the times and create stand-alone programming outside of cable
providers- they deserve to lose customers for that and Netflix is
starting to pave the way with shows like "Orange is the New Black" and
"House of Cards".

I am chiming in about this show because I am surprised at how positive
the reviews are trending for it. After reading positive buzz over the
past several months, I have finally had the opportunity to watch Orange
is the New Black. And I am very, very unimpressed.Now, as a disclaimer, I've only watched the first couple of episodes.
So I cannot comment on the rest of the first season. But from what I
did see, my observations are as follows:The Good - The premise is undeniably compelling, even if it is for
salacious reasons. The title is cool and clever. Laura Prepon. A
different role for Kate "Captain Janeway" Mulgrew. It's cool to support
Netflix's pioneering spirit.The Bad - The writing. The lead character and her fiancé. (Those are
two HUGE negatives, though.)I was expecting an intelligent drama. Maybe my expectations were off,
or unreasonable. Is this show a black comedy? It seems like it at
times, but the "humor" is very lowest-common denominator, often
employing very cheap-feeling shock value. Others have suggested that
this show gets away from clichés...I don't know, maybe in some isolated
cases, but on the whole it strikes me as extremely clichéd.The lead character is utterly unconvincing, annoying, and uninteresting
to me. In the bad sort of way, the not-worth-watching another episode
sort of way. Perhaps I am being too hasty in my judgment? Overall, I
can see why this show draws viewers. It is compulsively watchable in a
certain way. But not the way that deserves high quality ratings, in my
opinion.I approached Orange is the New Black with an open mind, by the way. I
simply feel that it is not very good. Certainly not to be compared with
the best shows around. Are we watching the same show here? I applaud
Netflix for the effort, but would suggest that there is huge room for
improvement, based on what I have seen.

This has rave reviews and I&apos;m really not sure why.

Jenji Cohan does it again. This show covers the life of an innocent
minded girl going through the troubles of fitting in to one of the
worst places to be, prison. Throughout her sentence she learns the do's
and don't's. she finds living her suburban lifestyle wont work. just
like our favorite drug dealing mom, Nancy Botwin, she learns quickly
and not always efficiently. It does a great job of entertaining through
laughs and a few cries. Great casting and writing. If you enjoyed weeds
then I highly recommend watching this. The best (or worst) part is that
you can watch all 13 episodes whenever you want if you're subscribed to
Netflix instant. I can almost guarantee you will fall in love with
piper Chapman. You will laugh and cry with her as she tries to make it
through her sentence.

This show is a seriously funny drama. If you like 'Weeds', 'Breaking Bad' or prefer your humour on the darker
side, then give it a go... you will not be disappointed.Very few people create characters like Jenji Kohan... and it is the
characters that make this show. Like 'Weeds', 'Orange' is fresh and
original, and like 'Weeds' the lead character is tragically flawed and
hilariously funny.Well done to Netflix on their latest production... 'Hemlock Grove' is
just weird, 'House of Cards' was hit and miss... but it looks like the
third time is a charm. Bravo.(FYI: humour is how we Brits spell humor). :-)
